I remember the time when BN & K (readnews resellers) were really slow in terms of downloading old files
A week or so ago i got myself a blocknews account and decided to give it another try
1091 days, 700MB random dvdrip
eunews.blocknews.net
1)18 connections = 700-850+ KB.
There is absolutely no point in increasing connections at all. It just doesnt work for me
usnews.blocknews.net
1)16 connections = 3.6 MB
2)25 connections = 4.7 MB
3)35 connections ( i suppose i could have used less) = 6MB(my max)
The results in relation to whereabouts of those servers are kinda strange - generally i have much better download speed from Europe
Here is my "tracert" to both servers:

To be honest, just looking at this i would expect to have faster speed from a european server..
